This still happens with Hardy with updates through 2008.12.22.
GNOME eog 2.22.3
.xsession-errors contains the following message:
** (eog:12052): WARNING **: Did not receive a reply. Possible causes include: the remote application did not send a reply, the message bus security policy blocked the reply, the reply timeout expired, or the network connection was broken.
strace shows this:
$ strace -p 11929
Process 11929 attached - interrupt to quit
futex(0x8404998, 0x80 /* FUTEX_??? */, 2
Further info: The only recovery procedure I've found is to:
1. kill all hung eog processes running in the background (ps; kill ... or reboot)
2. open eog from the command line with no parameters
3. when eog opens (which is will in this case with no parms), go to the View menu and un-check "Image collection"
4. exit, so the persistent setting is saved
Restarting eog from the "Image Viewer" context menu works again.
